Seems like this should be a bigger story. www.huffpost.com/entry/trumps...

Grateful to CK. In case of confusion, that would be the anti-racist CK who NFL owners chose to punish instead of honor.

I may never stop laughing. Maybe she could change the narrative by co-hosting it with….AHMAD RASHAD!

Really good episode - give it a listen

Ted Cruz defends Jimmy Kimmel from Trump more than he defended his own wife. Given her Goldman Sachs pedigree and reprehensible choice of a life partner, I would also have gone with Kimmel.

Bob Iger is actually married to Willow Bay. In the name of democracy, only Ahmad Rashad can save us now. (Has someone mentioned that this is the stupidest possible timeline? Maybe?)

After months of smearing this guy as a possible terrorist or terrorist supporter who they needed to eject as soon as possible back to Egypt, the trump administration today filed a motion in court basically going, eh nvm Glorious taxpayer funded use of time www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Rest in Peace to Redford. Met him at The Progressive’s 100th anniversary. Totally talking to everyone. No airs. Been thinking about my fave Redford (not fave Redford movie. That’s The Sting) and it’s so basic but The Natural is still goosebumps central for me. Roy F*cking Hobbs. Forever.

Well, there you have it.

It shocks me anew every time o think that MKW as Omar Little never won this award. Or Idris as Stringer. Or Bunk. Or Bub. Or…..(I could actually go on for a minute on that show alone.)

Covering Ravens game. Didn’t happen here. Look: making the praising of this cruel person a compulsory act for 70,000 people - a huge number of whom he had open contempt for - is on top of everything else, utterly bonkers and weird. Please post if you’ve seen other teams make their fans stand for him

I put an email out to the WSJ editorial staff asking when their apology/explanation will be forthcoming for putting lives at risk and spreading terror. I'm far from alone on this. HRC is demanding one as well. We cannot let them skate on this. They acted w/the caution of a St0rmFront message board.

The right wing bigot class: so desperate to shift blame away from their own fringe and preach vengeance at traditional targets. PT Barnum would be proud. YouTube views are at risk!

Just heard from the NFL that every individual home team this week has the option of honoring Charlie K!rk but (unlike last night) it will not be a league initiative so we’ll see what each individual owner chooses and what that tells us. Lots of ins, outs, whathaveyous on this one.

This is looking prophetic

Whoa

basically a generational cohort split here where certain younger people intuitively grasp the irony poisoned context, and if you aren't already up to speed, very hard to explain

Not a great day for the argument “why doesn’t Trump send troops in red states since they have higher murder rates.” Memphis wishes you had kept that one to yourself. We should - and I can’t believe this needs to be said - oppose using the military to police our cities in all cases. So dangerous.

Whoa. I never post things and ask if they are true or not…these days you have to ask and I mean no offense to NotHoodlum, but is this accurate???? Are they going to wage a civil war against themselves?

“Whatever you do! DONT QUOTE HIM!”

If they are so proud of who that dude was and what he stood for, why are they are trying to get people fired for posting verbatim things that he said? They’re more: “How dare you post that!” than “Damn right Gay people should be stoned/MLK was evil/Black women are unintelligent”etc. Worth asking.

Let’s talk words. Why “secret” and not “joy”, “gift”, or even “surprise”? What a weird choice. Have you ever said, “May every day be another wonder secret” to someone? In what (non-nauseating/non-felonious) context would that even make sense?

If liberals like Ezra are saying that someone who called for Gay people to be stoned, trans people to be lynched, Black people to accept police violence and women to obey did politics "the right way", that is in some respects more alarming that the bloviation of the far right. Bend that knee, Ezra.

Auditory learner alert! We have a pod here from the streets of Occupied DC. I read out the column Chuck M and I did about the Anti-ICE Night Patrols and how they are organized. If you, or someone you know, learns by listening and is prone to action, please share. www.thenation.com/podcast/soci...

Count no chickens. But because Chicago stood up, they were left with two options: escalate violence or fuck off. If we do this everywhere, their options narrow and narrow.

This bought off Supreme Court has no more moral authority to say that racial profiling is “legal” than Alabama had to order people to the back of the bus. It’s sickening. It’s immoral. And if ICE obeys, we’re filming so the world can note just who was “following orders.” Masks won’t hide culpability

This is a great and perhaps unanswerable question

Do NOT sell me more Mannings!

Strong rumor Aaron Rodgers got measles at halftime

lol. Rodgers would rather get vaccinated than hit

“Resisting occupation is not a crime.” That’s the UN talking, not me. But we better learn it.

The Washington Post deserves every amount of crap it gets for devolving into the Bezos Hellscape of Fascist Dipshittery. But I’m glad they filmed and posted the below. And this was not even the full march. And glad that some MSM did cover this. Looking like more than I assumed early on.

Because they like our rhythm but not our blues

Protesters in D.C. flood the streets demanding an end to Trump’s military deployment | via @ashleymurray.bsky.social kansasreflector.com/2025/09/06/r...

The networks sent a confidential email - since leaked - that the cameras are not to show reactions to the orange jackass. So yes. Chant Epstein between points. Respecting this fascist is complicity.

Obviously, if you're at the Open and see any protests, be sure to film them and put them on social media.

Pete Hegseth wants to order live ammo shot by the National Guard in the streets because he is a fascist worm. Trump is bragging - because he’s really stupid - about waging “Chipocolypse Now” in Chicago. To disagree with this admin is to be an enemy combatant. The USA is fucking done.

Look. Not naive. Been doing this for a minute. It is shocking to me how little media is out here as thousands of #FreeDC demonstrators descend (and it is a descent) on the White House.

Among the #FreeDC thousands. Massive banners and folks wearing shirts of dude throwing that sandwich. That moment catching on is so amazing/crazy to me. Symbol of a movement! With double meat!

Massive Free DC demo in Malcolm X park. Holy shit. Go find photos. Too busy shouting and interviewing to post. Will the mainstream media cover this???? No media presence beyond the grassroots that I see.

Davey Johnson, manager of the 1986 Mets and huge part of my childhood has passed away. Just taking a moment. Time of great cruelty and crisis but if the small things can’t still matter then nothing matters.

Rest in Peace to Ken Dryden, not only a top 3 goalie of all time, but author of “The Game”, arguably the best sports memoir ever written. Had an incredible, substantial life. I’m not a hockey guy (or haven’t been for some time) but Dryden transcends public-consumption-athletics.

This is the next lie we’ll be forced to accept as truth or face the wrath of the mob-state we’ve become. Accept this nonsense or face the wrath the most performative Christian since fellow shielder-of-pederasts Cardinal Bernard Law, Pam “have you seen my new massive phallus-shaped crucifix?” Bondi.

Love a good turn of phrase, and hard to do better than calling white nationalism “the socialism of the irredeemably stupid” 👏

Our tax dollars. Funding the missile strike of a boat with 11 people and we have to take the word of a congenital liar that the were drug runners. No hearings. No investigation. No proof. These are not the actions of people who think they’ll ever have to answer for their crimes. So that’s our task.

My latest piece @thenation.com "Does DC Have A Vichy Mayor? It’s Still Unclear And That’s The Problem" www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Throw them all under the jail of course. But this is some truly devilish shit.

"By ordering the U.S. military to summarily kill a group of people aboard what he said was a drug-smuggling boat, President Trump used the military in a way that had no clear legal precedent or basis, according to specialists in the laws of war and executive power." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/04/u...

What white nationalism - the socialism of the irredeemably stupid - looks like when weaponized. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/09/04/e...
